No results with Link Analysis
-
So I have been working with a domain since November last year that still shows no improvement in regards to the link analysis. I am baffled because we have gotten them onto the first page on Google for a few of the keywords we are optimizing. Any help with this is greatly appreciated and I am a noob so definitely open to learning. Thanks in advance to all of you.
Domain in question - www.modernportablerefrigeration.com
Domain is currently on a shared server if that makes any difference.
Cordially,
Todd Richard

Hi Todd,
The metrics you're seeing are from February. OSE is usually updated monthly, but we had technical problems and it's been seven weeks since the last update. There's a new update due on April 27th, and you should see some changes then.

This is a screenshot of what I am talking about, also thanks everyone for trying to help the noob.

Under link analysis it shows "1" for domain authority and zeros all the way down the rest. Thanks for the feedback everyone, I guess if everything is working it might not matter, but it is unnerving and annoying to be building and building with no results in one little area. The funny thing is all tools except Webmaster Tools shows the one for domain authority and zeros for the rest, or that the data is unavailable.

Open Site Explorer does not have the horsepower to crawl the entire internet like google does. With less than infinite resources, OSE attempts to crawl many important sites and avoids many directories and other low page rank sites. If the links you have built are lower quality (like many of mine), they may not show up in OSE. That doesn't mean that google doesn't see them or that they don't help with keyword ranking. Google webmaster tools shows 4x more linking domains to my site than OSE, but OSE shows nearly all the important ones.
Hope that helps. Remember that the goal is ranking on google, not OSE. OSE is just a tool.

Hi Todd,
A site can still rank for the keywords you are optimising for with on-page alone - if the area is niche enough (or the other pages have poor on-page SEO).
If you mean that you are appearing on page one and you are not getting people link back to you organically... That's just life
If you mean you have built links and they are not showing up using Open Site Explorer then either Roger has not crawled the site with your links on or the index has not updated (IIRC OSE's site index gets updated once a month).

Why is my entire page appearing as a video result (and only a video result)?
A page on my site is appearing as a video result. When you click on the link, it takes you to the page. The page does have a video on it, but it seems weird that the entire page would appear as (and only as) a video...

Can you regain any SERPs / link juice of links that have 404'd?
We have a client whose 301 redirects disappeared and have been gone for about 6 months now. We are going to be putting the 301 redirects back in place. Will we be able to regain any of the previous SERPs or link juice from old links or is all lost? Thanks in advance!

Is it worth disvowing scrappers' links?
Hello guys, Do you think it is worth disvowing scrappers' links on otherwise good linking profile. Sites like Webmaster tools shows that sites like: mrwhatis.net, askives.com prlog.ru bigbozz.com answerparty.com wordexplorer.com scrape our content and generated from 10 to 90 links to our pages. Is removing these links waste of my time? Thanks

Will links to www and none www result in penalty?
Hello all, Normally i redirect my www to none www to avoid the potential of duplicate content and as its typically something that is done in SEO. I don't have access to the site of the company I am working for at the moment as everything related to the sites code goes through the web developer. At the moment the site lives at www and none www and one does not redirect to the other. I have been building links (organically as we engage on a few forums and blogs) to the www as that is how it is linked internally already and how links from the job boards we post on link. We do however have some natural none www links and my concern is that since the site isn't redirected that it is being penalised or could become penalised because of this. I imagine that it isn't a serious penalty if one at all but I would rather know so I can try and get it sorted as fast as possible. Thanks.

So instead of adding "noindex, follow" tag i have changed the url in my search result page like this: Original
http://www.mysite.com/kb-search.aspx?=travelguide&type=wiki&s=3 To
http://www.mysite.com/travelguide/attraction-guide.html And the search result page contains the title of the articles, a short descriptions (300 chars.) and a link to the articles. Does it help? Or should i add noindex, follow tag? Helps Please?0 -
How to find links to 404 pages?

I am sure some links got lost in the fray that I would like to recover, what is the easiest way to see links going to a domain that are pointing to 404 pages?
